22 Jul Clarification

In post from July 19, the Super Mongo Goofy Relays were mistakenly attributed to Dave Reeve solely. In doing some research, we found out that Andrew Hano and Eric Rozen were also involved in the creation of the event. Our humblest apologies to Andrew and Eric.

Photos from the exciting conclusion of First Session will be up very soon, so check back soon.

19 Jul Super Mongo Goofy Relays

Camp legend Dave Reeve created the Super Mongo Goofy Relays years ago and it has continued to be one of the most popular special events at Camp. Teams rotate through stations, completing various tasks from setting a dining hall table, to kicking and catching three balls at a certain distance, to singing a song while the entire team stands upon a single milk crate.

Also included in the above gallery are some photos from Saturday evenings co-ed activity, where all costumes had to be related to the letter P.
